Acrylic, Polymethyl Methacrylate, (PMMA), is the synthetic polymer is a transparent thermoplastic. Plastic Dome skylights are common and cheap, and are often a source of condensation and heat. They may easily deteriorate in light and become discolored over time. The quality of a plastic skylight may vary, and the final efficiency and lifespan of it depends on the type of acrylic used. A standard dome skylight does not meet energy efficiency standards for windows and skylights.
